A third Uyghur we read about at our protest was Kamile Wayit, who last year became one of 40 individuals listed by the European Parliament as unjustly imprisoned in China. Arrested when she was a 19-year-old student studying preschool education, she was sentenced for "advocating extremism" after sharing a video of a protest. The protest was held because 10 people had been killed by a fire in a locked Urumqi apartment building.
The 8th #China-#Eurasia #Expo commenced on Wednesday morning in #Urumqi, located in northwest China's #Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region with focus on #trade and #investment. Spanning an area of 140,000 square meters, the #exhibition features #pavilions from 23 countries, three regions, and one #international #organization. #Kazakhstan, #Kyrgyzstan, #Uzbekistan, and #Tajikistan are the guest countries of honor. https://cnbusinessforum.com/8th-china-eurasia-expo-opens-in-urumqi-with-focus-on-trade-and-investment/

There is VERY strong evidence that both #India and #Russia are massively under reporting #CovidDeaths but in very different ways … i might get back to that later.
(I only noticed your display name part way through writing this, what does it mean?)
But for China it depends WHEN…
I was thinking of re-posting the poll to ask about a less ambiguous time, e.g. before the fire in #Urumqi or asking people to speculate about the numbers by end of 2023.

Just read an entire detailed recap of the #ChinaProtests, talking about the #Urumqi fire, #ZeroCovid, the use of #A4 in the protests.
That does not, even once, mention the #Uyghurs.
